-

Cross-platform support was weak in the available evidence because Mac/iOS software support was criticized as absent.
-
Fingertip grip comfort was poor in the one review that tested it, especially for medium-sized hands.

Tilt controls were a weakness in the only opinionated mention because a proper tilt scroll wheel was missing.

Portability was mixed to negative, with a pouch appreciated by one reviewer but another calling the mouse the least portable they had seen.
